Hey Larry T,
I had the exact problem on my '79. The el cheapo chrome thermo. housing I put on the edelbrock aluminum intake leaked like crazy.
I finally had good luck with a polished aluminum thermo. housing from Spectre Industries. It is a 2 piece unit with the rubber ring. No problems with it at all and it's been on for well over a year.
HTH,
Kevin
